Crysis 3, please :). Very High + (at least) FXAA, for single digit framerates on midrange cards :D. Other sites test C3 on Medium :shadedshu

Company: TUL, AMD GPU: Tahiti, 7970 SKU: Reference one :p

Seems like AMD is trying to kill Moore's law. First they slowed down CPU development with Bulldozer, now they stalling graphics cards market. Good job, AMD.

AMD fails again. Could 2014 AMD Radeon "HD 8970" Fail Edition compete with nVidia's next high end chip (~30 percent faster than Titan). I think not.

$900, still no improvement in perf/USD, 2bad. Yawn. That's not how you popularize PC gaming. Tough times for nVidia, Tesla got a problem with Xeon Phi, Tegra 4 apparently sucks, next gen consoles use AMD hardware (although a mistake IMHO, absolute performance and perf/Watt wise), GeForce might...

Decreasing endurance didn't helped :p. I'd take 330 instead.

IGP still slower than 7750, Hybrid CFX slower than 8750. Impressive, AMD you have fastest IGP world has ever seen, too bad it's glued to slow power hungry Pile of <beep> processor. :D

There is another reason for high profits. It's failure of all PC/Notebook companies to deliver real good quality hardware. Most important, notebooks. An average PC notebook has 1366*768 ~200nits, ~300:1 (there are worse ones, as well, another lenovo, T430s or T430u scores less than 150:1)...

Remember Zune? I didn't think so. What we learned from all these years is that M$ cannot compete with Apple products. Especially with this silly price.

Prices Take an i3-3220 or one of low power i3-3xxx models (or i5/i3 standard or low voltage for notebooks/ultrabooks). -Underclock it -Undervolt it -(optional) turn off one core -(optional) turn off HT -Use single DDR3 module @1.35V (or 1.5V undervolted to 1.35V) -Save $150-250

Think about this when you need to render something (video or raytracing), or play Crysis 3... And virtualization is violation of user's privacy. So, it is being dumber from user's point of view. It just means that hardware and software are owned by an Corporation (could be evil, what do you...

Raven?

Make it single slot so that is posible to fit 7 of these with board like ASUS Z9PE D8 and four 1250+W PSU's :laugh:. For password cracking etc...

It would be nice to include Far Cry 3 and maybe Hitman: Absolution in the next reviews :).
